I am trying to check if a file is in use. The below code works, but after I run it the first time, it locks the file so that it always returns that the file is in use.

How do I check if the file is in use but also not keep the file open after I check?
            try
            {
                File.Open(fileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.None);
            }
            catch (Exception exp)
            {
                return true;
            }
            return false;
Thanks,

Jerry
